Martin Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon' Set to Premiere on Apple TV+

Starring Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio, Martin Scorsese's epic western crime drama Killers of the Flower Moon will debut globally on Apple TV+ on January 12.

Based on David Grann's best-selling book of the same name, Killers of the Flower Moon was co-written by Eric Roth and Scorsese. The film, which is set in Oklahoma in the 1920s, tells the terrifying tale of the heinous crime spree known as the Reign of Terror, which began with the cold-blooded murder of Osage Nation members in Ohio.

The film's cast also includes Jesse Plemons, Tantoo Cardinal, Cara Jade Myers, JaNae Collins, Jillian Dion, and Lily Gladstone in addition to DiCaprio and De Niro.

Since its 2023 Cannes Film Festival debut, Killers of the Flower Moon has won praise from both critics and viewers. The most recent film directed by Scorsese won the Best Film of the Year award from the National Board of Review. It was nominated for seven Golden Globe Awards and an astounding twelve Critics Choice Awards.

Killers of the Flower Moon has not only made it onto the American Film Institute's esteemed list of Motion Pictures of the Year, but it has also made it onto the shortlists for several 96th Academy Awards categories, including Best Sound, Best Original Score, Best Original Song, and Best Makeup and Hair.

To add to its accolades, on January 4 at the Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards gala, Killers of the Flower Moon received the Vanguard Award.
